I think health care is more about love than about most other things. If there isn't at the core of this two human beings who have agreed to be in a relationship where one is trying to help relieve the suffering of another, which is love, you can't get to the right answer here.

We have really good data that show when you take patients and you really inform them about their choices, patients make more frugal choices. They pick more efficient choices than the health care system does.

Our health care system is the finest in the world, but we still have too many uninsured Americans, too high prices for prescription drugs, and too many frivolous lawsuits driving our physicians out of state or out of business.

There's a lot of people in this world who spend so much time watching their health that they haven't the time to enjoy it.

Advances in science and medical research and public health policies have meant that life expectancy for Australians is one of the highest in the world.

Prevention is one of the few known ways to reduce demand for health and aged care services.

And I believe that the best buy in public health today must be a combination of regular physical exercise and a healthy diet.

We have one of the few societies, the only one I can think of right offhand, where your health care is so tied to your job, so that when an American company has to hire, they have to think about health care.

The current health crisis, however, is a little more the work of the evil empire. We were told, we were assured, that the more meat and dairy and poultry we ate, the healthier we'd be.

If you're working out in front of a mirror and watching your muscles grow, your ego has reached a point where it is now eating itself. That's why I believe there should be a psychiatrist at every health club, so that when they see you doing this, they will take you away for a little chat.

The states are not free, under the guise of protecting maternal health or potential life, to intimidate women into continuing pregnancies.

Our children's health and well-being are dependent on our commitment to promoting food access and good eating habits at home, at school and in the community.

Health care is not a privilege. It's a right. It's a right as fundamental as civil rights. It's a right as fundamental as giving every child a chance to get a public education.

Ask any woman and she'll tell you: health care for women is more expensive than it is for men. In fact, during their reproductive years, women spend 68% more on health care than men do.

I never could have achieved the success that I have without setting physical activity and health goals.

We cannot continue. Our pension costs and health care costs for our employees are going to bankrupt this city.

The biggest mistakes, early on, involved foreign policy and involved the strategy for health care.

On health care, virtually every political error that could be made was made.

Mr. President, the buzz saw that your healthcare bill ran into wasn't lobbyists and special interests it was tens of millions of American's who were saying, 'Stop!'

Make no mistake, a 'yes' vote on the Democrats' health care bill is a vote for taxpayer-funded abortions.
